Roberto Carlos has described Arsenal goal Achraf Hakimi as one of the best right-backs of the modern era, comparing the Inter Milan star to Cafu on Pierluigi Pardo’s Twitch account.

Will Achraf Hakimi choose Chelsea over Arsenal?
However, Premier League rivals Chelsea in London are in pole position.
